The BOSTON RUBBER SHOE COMPANY is completely
equipped to supply the largely increased demand for
ne-w styles, widths, and toes in extreme patterns.

This company has had a reputation for years for the
excellence not only of its heavy ^oods, such as Boots,
Lumberm.en's, and Sandals, but also for the lighter
weight Puubbers, and to=day the needs of the most fashion-
able can be fully supplied in the extremest styles of li^ht
rubber foot-wear.
